I love your videos and reviews Urvashi. You are realistic and a pleasure to watch, as well as giving an informative review. Thank you.
Irene Latte thanks so much for watching!
*I like that I can "fry" something on a whim! An oil fryer takes so much more time to clean and prepare **MyBest.Kitchen** a chore which usually kept me from frying all together. Also, the lack of needing oil to fry means that my family and I are eating healthier... while still enjoying the crispiness of fried foods.*
You can skip the preheat by pressing and holding the start button (benefits of reading the manual lol)
good point! My husband reads manuals so between the two of us, we get by haha!
READ YOUR OWNERS MANUAL: You mention several times about not liking the pre-heat. From Owners Manual: Pressing START/CANCEL again during preheating will cancel preheating and immediately start cooking.
Also set the fan to High Speed when Air Frying will give you crisper chicken wings. Again from the manual: Use the high fan speed (super convection) for crispier results, and for air frying.
I ALWAYS read manuals. You can avoid a lot of frustration and discover features and benefits that may not be evident intuitively, not to mention practices that may compromise the longevity of the appliance, void the warranty, or produce undesirable results. Manufacturers want consumers to have success with their products. Future sales depend on it, so manuals are intended to ensure proper use. It’s worth the time to read the manual. If you want to criticize something, criticize a manual for clarity and ease of understanding, but not before you read it. IMO, a review that is based on improper use does a disservice to viewers by wasting their time with misinformation, not to mention unfairly representing the product. A review after using a product for some time is more valuable than an out-of-the box first experience. Rave product reviews at unboxing or on first use are worthless if the product consistently breaks down after an unreasonably short time. A lot of the info in this video was helpful, like size information, but it would have been so much better if it had been approached with correct use as specified in the manual.
I just bought this oven and I did read the manual. I think the manual is adequate, but not as thorough as I'd like.
Well. . . For those of us that use this oven and love it, you can skip the preheat just by touching the preheat button a second time. Also you can pause the time when opening the door to make changes, stir etc. You give GREAT reviews but at times when you try to do things without reading even a word of the guide, you give misguided and inaccurate reviews bcuz you didn’t operate the machine as required by the manufacturer. Please don’t take offence, it’s just my opinion. I love your reviews and what you do, I have both your air fryer cookbooks already. As a retired Gold Seal Chef I want to say that your cookbooks are stellar and very well done. Keep up the great work, looking forward to seeing your next one. Hopefully in the next one you’ll at least read the QuickStart guide.
Stay safe and be careful... Kevin🎗
Please tell me how to pause the time when opening the door. I knew how to skip the preheat. Also do you have any trick on how to clean the inside top of the oven? It 's imposible for me to clean it. I was disappointed that she didn't mention about it. I have learned many things from custommer comments like yours. Thannks
@@diemvolz4311
Another one of the many flaws of the Cosori is that you cannot pause the time(r) when opening the day. It just keeps running. 🤷🏻♂️
I know, you’d think it would pause but it goes to show the basic thought that was put into the machine. This is one of many reasons I returned mine and bought the Ninja Foodi XL Pro Air Fry Oven. I even upgraded to the SMART version with intuitive food thermometer. LOVE IT and so much more versatile and larger.
I came across this by accident looking for an airfryer for my wife and GLAD I I DID ...;) I could watch you all day long chatter on about anything .... really a pleasant lady to listen too...thanks :-)
You should put the roasting pan under the air fryer basket to catch the drippings. The crumb tray at the very bottom is for crumbs, not for hot oil drippings.
Yeah it also protects the coils from getting dripped on.
@@fmthebaron Well said. Those oil drippings were scary :)
This oven was a lifesaver for us. Our old gas oven went out, and after spending $200 to get it 'fixed', it still didn't work. I got one of these, and it has done the job.
I bought this unit 2 months ago as a countertop oven when my range oven broke (and as we were selling our house, didn't want to invest in a new one). I primarily use it as a convection oven, broiler, and warmer - and it's fabulous. The preheat function is super frustrating and took me a while to get used to it. As an air-fryer, it's not the best in all my attempts so far to make chips or fries - but today I'll be trying chickpeas from my Instant Pot, and I'll try the broil (carefully) as you suggested. Oh, and I want to throw some love on you ... I overcame my fear and have mastered the art of Instant Pot cooking with the help of your videos and cookbooks!! You have an energetic and confident style that speaks to me. Bless you Urvashi!!!
I'm dead. You had me laughing so hard "just imagine that I picked this up and went mmm mm mmm" 😂😂😂 I just came across this video after searching for air fryer videos and I'm so glad I found you! I think I need your cook books now!
I’ve had my Cosori since November 2021 and love it! There’s a few comments I want to make reference your video:
1. I know you don’t care for the preheat feature and you don’t use it. The reason why it wants you to press the start button again, once it reaches its preheat temperature, it’s so we can start the cooking time. The purpose is to get the temperature up to par and that’s when cooking actually starts.
2. The silicon mats for the crumb tray is an excellent idea. What I also did is put aluminum foil and fitted it around the edges, that way if crumbs or drips or anything else fall onto the crumb tray, the aluminum foil will catch it and then all I have to do is dispose of it and replace it.
3. This is a question for you being that you were the expert in my eyes! I tried to air fry french fries that I made, meaning that they were raw, made from scratch. The preset time and temperature did not cut it. What do you recommend I do for french fries that I make from scratch?
OMG finally a reviewer I can listen to and enjoy :) Usually they just get on my nerves and I want to slap or yell at them.
This is the first product review Ive ever seen that I wanted to say thank you )
I just love your sense of humor Urvashi! I can watch you for hours and feel like I am in your kitchen with you! I have watched this particular video three times!
You are so lively and entertaining thank you for making it so enjoyable! By the way, I live in Greece.
Excellent review. Lots of practical hands on demonstrations and info - non stop, lol! Great sense of humor. Thks - I'm at point of making a purchasing decision. I like this one after this review.
Holy crap. Thank you for all the information and the demos for size etc.! So helpful when you live 100 miles from anywhere that sells these :) Being funny in addition is just priceless :D
Thanks for the insightful reviews. I've been trying to figure out which air fryer to buy, this is very helpful.
“With your arthritic, spatially challenged hands....”. LOL - I love this woman! No BS with a dry, witty sense of humor. Awesome review - Thank you!
Dan Miller :) thank you for watching!
I love watching your reviews! You are very thorough and entertaining.
Lori Mast thank you!
you make the best review! answering all my questions! subscribed!
Legitimately thought I was watching this on 1.5x speed or something, haha. I often speed videos up because people get information across so slowly, but you were amazing. Turns out you can skip pre-heat by long-pressing the start button, I guess. But other than the interface struggles, you gave a solid review! Very nice.
I would love love love to see a comparison of the top 5 air fryer ovens! I suggest that the top 5 companies give you their items for review and you do a toaster over/air fryer war! You are the expert, so I would totally listen to you.
i cannot understand how people do videos when they dont know what they are doing...thank you a loooot...finally.
Your videos are so much fun to watch! And great info, thank you!
Thank you for an informative review. I just got one of these and you showed me how to get started using it!
Thank you for being so detailed and comparing between the other units.
I’ll look for your cookbooks.
Beautifully simple reviews. Great job
I really enjoyed your review... Your personality is very real and refreshing...
Taking a little longer to cook means a little drier food result!! I'll stay with my 5.8 qt Cosori, thank you very much!!! The problem with these ovens is that they are facing a limit of necessary power from a 110 volt outlet. The smaller air fryers ALREADY consume about the limit of available power from the kitchen outlet! Trying to get more energy from a typical 20 Amp 110 Volt circuit will simply blow a fuse! Having more food in the oven means it will take more energy to cook at the same speed that the smaller Cosori will cook at. So with a limit of energy, it simply takes longer to get the same degree of 'cook' per food item in the larger Cosori. Longer cook means a drier result. NOT GOOD!! YOU DID A MARVELOUS REVIEW!! Thank you for your honesty!..Ron K.
ronald kondler thank you!
You would be an awesome host/seller on a platform like HSN or QVC. Of course thank God for RUclips where people like you can do your own thing and keep it real. Great review, this really helps us indecisive shoppers. Thank you!!
This unit wasn’t one of the options I researched. I ended up going with the Breville 9. Haven’t regretted it even once. I love these reviews. Thanks for all the detail in your reviews.
Susan Scovill thanks for watching!
I think this is the one for me, you've helped me decide. A job well done, this is air fryer video number 3. I like your style big time, very refreshing.
Buying one of your cook books is also under consideration. God bless
I absolutely love this air fryer! We have a much bigger one that I barely use because it’s so big. This one is the perfect size for us.
Thanks for this honest review. I just bought the Cosori oven/air fryer and have also had a struggle with the preheat function. I still like that it does so many things, since I don't have room for lots of appliances in my kitchen. One more thing is that pressing the cancel button doesn't turn the oven off, so I have to unplug it. If Cosori would change that, it would be excellent! Thanks again!
To immediately turn off the oven when you’re finished, press and hold the bottom Time/Temp knob until it beeps and it shuts down the display.
Love your review, very straightforward and honest. Thanks!!!
Thanks for watching!
well made video and the best thing about it.. no-edits to make it appear all prim and proper :-) !. in the market after dumping my Black and Decker Toaster oven so happened to chance upon this. Will have a look at your other videos. and if you have recipes then that too!
Are you supposed to use the food tray under the air fryer basket? That would keep the crumb tray cleaner
Such a helpful and entertaining review! Thank you! =)
TwoSleevers, Excellent, excellent video review. You went over how to do slow cooking with this oven which is something I'm particularly interested in. I'm going to get this. Thank you.
anonymous glad that helped! Thanks for watching
I love this machine, I don't have breville money. I have a family of 6 so it's perfect size wise. Idk if it's right or wrong but I wrap my drip tray in aluminum foil 🤷🏻♀️ Hope this helps someone
Thank you for the review. I received mine yesterday and I am a bit confused with the times. I will have to play with it, your review helped.
Have fun! I have lots of air fryer recipes on www.twosleevers.com/recipe-index You can select just air fryer ones from there
if you hit the button again while its on pre heat it will bypass the pre heat and will just do the timer
I absolutely love this air fryer best one I have bought and I own three and gave a couple away
I saw another video about this . They said and demonstrated that all you have to do is push the start button again, and it bypasses the pre-heat stage.
I enjoy your videos soooo much. You make me smile and I feel you are very honest. I will have to check out your cookbooks. Namaste
Thank you so much!
Urvashi, I am so grateful that you are so opinionated and mouthy. I can't stand chatty people (talking for the sake of making noise or seeming to be friendly). Opinionated and mouthy is so real. And trustworthy. I'm a "no bs kind of person; say what matters . . . and . . . it matters what you say.
Oh, and btw, great review. I was wondering about these things and which would be better for me, the egg or the oven. I bought a 30. 1.3 qt egg this summer and just before Christmas an oven for 68.,1/2 price) on Black Friday. I prefer the oven for the 'plug it in and leave it till you need it' ease of use. This confirmed my feelings towards both and taught me to get a mat to cover the crumb tray. I just covered it with foil for now but hate using foil. They get tears in them and the item they are protecting gets dirty anyway so if I'm going to have to wash something, it's better if it's something I can wipe off and reuse. I hate creating un-necessary garbage, not because I am so Green but because the bag is gets heavier to carry to the curb (or trash bin).
I don't like the need to press the Start button after the preheat. The one I got doesn't do that. I guess there is something to be said for one with less bells & whistles. I also found placing a silicon mat on the top - without covering the vents - does an excellent job keeping my upper cupboards cool/warm to the touch. There. That's me being opinionated and mouthy. ;-)
Sheila M I love hearing your opinions too!
@@Twosleevers I cut a grill mat to fit on the crumb tray much happier with it. Thank you.
Great...That did it for me.....Old dogs really CAN learn new tricks! Thank you!!!
Love your reviews ( the good, the bad, and the never mind)!! I hope you can do a detailed review of the Breville Smart Air Oven soon.. thanks
I was watching one of your other videos, the one with the ginger rice and half a chicken.I busted out laughing when you got back on screen and said you got distracted by a shiny object😂😂😂 I subscribed right then and there! Not to mention it was an excellent review on the ninja foodi which I just got a month ago.
I have a good feeling about this channel and I’m going to binge watch some today for I am not feeling so hot & relaxing 😊
TheSunRiseKid I’m sure you can relate to the shiny object syndrome right? Welcome !
Haha!!! Most definitely!!! The first time I got distracted by shiny objects when my ninja foodi was counting backwards and I had no idea what was going on!!!
It’s awesome that the ninja foodi keeps track of the entire time we are distracted!😂😭
New sub, here...LOVE you! Thank you for your efforts.
You can skip pre heat by pressing again the start button. Jeje but I really want to know if any silicon mat can be use to protect the bottom tray and if your books sale in Mexico. Thank you
I had the same problem with the pre heat . In the book, it states, once its preheated, you have to hit start again. I missed that, and it didn't cook . So I restarted process, then when it went to pre heat, let it on there for a few min, then hit start button again, and it started cooking.
The preheat keeps beeping until you push the button because the oven cannot assume you put the food in exactly when the preheat beeped the first time. Instead it waits for you to confirm the food is inserted. Otherwise you would have to reset the timer if you waited too long to put the food in. Sounds like a smart design to me.
Jon Nystrom you’re right as to the reason why. many of the others turn off if you just open the door. Others also don’t beep quote as long. That’s my biggest issue.
ty for the review, very insightful. just fyi, rotisserie isnt just about cooking evenly, it's about the meat basting on it's own juices as it spins, keeping the meat juicy and tastier.
If we cover with the aluminum foil can we boil rice and cook liquid curry in it
Thank you for all the work you do for your channel, I love your reviews! But the burning question is, which is your all-time fav? I have a small air fryer that we purchased to see if we would want one, and definitely do. However, don't want to be saddled with just another gadget that we don't use.
Thanks for a very complete review.
Your comment on not liking mandatory preheat on Cosori overlooked 2 good features. You can choose to preheat with toast function. Then, when you start cooking and preheat function begins, you can push the button again and preheat will stop and food will cook for the entered time. Or you can omit preheating with toast function, add 3 minutes to estimated cooking time, and press the start/cancel button twice as mentioned above. I only read the instructions for my new Cosori oven because I watched your presentation and was sure there would be a workaround.
floridian080 thanks for sharing those tips!
@ 7:31 you made a very good point about how you don't necessarily have to use the rotisserie because the air flows evenly around the meat anyway. I did a whole chicken in my air-fryer just off the rack itself...It turned out perfect, and I didn't even have to flip it. 😋😍 I'd include a pic if I knew how. 😁
Great video btw...Very informative. 😊
You're quite funny too. 😂😍❤
@jfsfrnd
Yep...I imagine that would work very nicely as well.😊
Have you had any problem with the silicone mat on the crumb tray partially melting from being underneath the heating element? I've measured the heating elements at its highest temp with a laser temp gun and it can go up to 450 F after the pre heat and airfryer setting for about 20 min. Most silicone mats are rated up to 450 F so I'm curious.
my problem is that my cabinets are very low...18 inches...do you believe i can put it under my new cabinets.?
Fantastic review! Thank you very much❤
You sold me on this oven! And I’m going to pick up your recipe books. Those recipes can all be used in this oven air fryer?
Loved your review! Your comedy isn't bad either, haha.
The main attraction here for me is the rotisserie. I have the Emeril air fryer 360 and when I use the rotisserie it smokes because the fat drips on the burners will this happen with this one ?
After an entire day of searching when I got down to this or a similar Toshiba I got more than I hoped for with this review, well worth the time I believe. If I actually do pick this one I will hate the preheating thing as well, I suppose. But what the heck, it is a very minor problem after all.
As others have mentioned, you can forgo the preheat by pressing the start button twice. Cheers!
I am a fan of rotisseries especially for prime rib and I have used my vintage Farberware "smokeless" --not sure if this is a good alternative. And can any of these toaster oven types do a 12 lb turkey?
Excellent review of the Casori toaster oven / fryer / rotisserie oven.
Looking forward to ordering your books on Amazon for air frying. My nieces love air frying so I'm going to get them a copy as well.
Can I ask you: would you recommend this Cosori over two ovens I'm looking at right now?
The Emeril Lagasse Power Air Fryer 360 XL, and the....
Galanz 6-Slice Toaster Oven with Digital Touch Control Panel
THANK YOU SO MUCH WILL LOOK 4 MORE OF YOUR VIDEOS COMING UP
I like the way your explain 😍
if you hit the start button while in pre heat it will go straight into regular cooking and by pass the pre heat cycle. you dont have to wait for the extra pre heat cycle. plus you can put the baking pan in the first slot to cant the dripping for better clean up
Where did you buy yours? Thank you.
@@sherri. I dont have one.
Exactly. I always have the baking/roasting pan under anything that’s going to drip oil. That crumb pan is more for catching...well, crumbs! Dry foods. Definitely not primarily for greasy foods. And that’s right about the pre-heat button. You can bypass it or hit it again to cook.
2 comments .. One you can cancel the Pre Heat if you hit the button again.. 2nd comment is just put the baking pan on bottom and it will catch the drippings vs onto the drip tray and much easier to clean
Renita, you are absolutely correct on both points. I did a rotisserie chicken with the drip tray , but after ten minutes I switched to the baking pan to avoid a big mess. I also added water to the pan to avoid any smoke and baked on grease. The chicken turned out perfect !!!!
I'm with you on the wings. They even taste a little funky without sauce.
Great job on this review 😊🏆
Can you tell me on the Cosori toaster oven air fryer does the knobs and handle get really hot when it's running and what about the top and sides too hot to touch????
The knobs do not get too hot to touch. The sides got warm, but not burning hot.
Best review. Thank you 😊
My pleasure 😊
I loved your review. I have a question regarding the toaster oven air fryer. I was wondering is it possible to make things like pakoras and baturas in the toaster over air fryer. I noticed that some one said in the Breville Toaster oven airfyer that the food being air fried should not drip. But you know pakoras and koftas it can drip. Can you please help.
If you press and hold start you can skip pre heat
Exactly. She just doesn’t realize that she should have hit the button again to start cooking. There’s a learning curve.
@@Linsifer she did say she doesn't like reading instructions...
I definitely don't mind a little added time, if you consider that you can get about twice as many in there. In the long run, it still takes less time to cook 16 wings in this one than it would in the Ninja.
Very nicely explained. During this lockdown period i was tempted to try my hand in kitchen by making a few snack items. looking at the video just now, i have some questions 1 ) can we have 3 shelves for air frying only.( with modified trays ) I need to use the air fryer for a one specific item in large volumes. What is the country of mfg, what is the cost, & time to receive in Pune.
Fantastic review 👍...subbed
To skip preheating just press the start button one more time
Exactly, it will start cooking again
And that is because she knows about air fryers and wrote garbage books about them! LMAO!
How is the rotisserie function? How big of a bird or roast will it handle?
Does the Breville also have a crazy pre-heat problem like this Cosori? If no, that's why there's a price difference. The Breville also is more solid according to what you said. This unit is thinner.
Were did get the pads to put on the try keep it clean?
Hello, You are true to the core. I am goin nuts in deciding which air fryer oven combo to buy , I don't care for fermenting but i do love to bake and all the rest cooking tools. Please recommend me a worthy Air fryer toaster oven ? Thank you
I hope you review the new Cosori Smart Air Fryer Toaster Oven. I am anxious to learn what you think of it! This was a great
eview.
How do you clean the food tray? Mines is peeling after one wash. Wrote to company & waiting for response.
this unit has a crumb tray but no drip tray so juices fall on heating elements. how difficult would it be to clean the inside of the unit of all that grease
Ralph Denino one could use the roaster tray as a drip tray but then of course that will need cleaning. All the oven air fryers operate the same way.
I just got this as a gift for a family member and I really would love for a review on something so simple how do I set the time on this oven??
To immediately turn off the oven when you’re finished, press and hold the bottom Time/Temp knob until it beeps and it shuts down the display.
I really appreciate your understanding of the Ninja Foodie, I purchase one about three months ago, and I am afraid to start using it due to the fact I had a Coffee maker and it caught on fire since then I am afraid to used something new. I really like your explanation. I would like to know the price for your cook book for the foodie. Thank you.
Can we bake a whole chicken in this?
Enjoyed your video.
Have you checked out the Cuisinart Toaster Oven/air fryer that is very comparable to this Cosori? I like the capacity and rectangular basket of the larger models.
Make sure the cosori air fryer you bought isn’t on the recall list. I had one and had to get it replaced.
Same! We actually got this one she's reviewing for free since the other one was recalled
No room for an air fryer and a toaster oven. What I get needs to do both
Could you provide the items you clean the inside and exterior of the air fryer/toaster oven, please.
To everyone who watched this. This oven comes with a drip pan to put under the basket! also There are a lot of negative reviews on the glass on this oven breaking and shattering so be careful!
Exactly, that drip pan also protects the coils from getting splattered on as well as the crumb tray.
I haven’t had no problems
@@ruthybarretta7955 We bought one for my job. Used it for almost a year now. no issues here as well
Well done!
